News release: Overnight releases will be reduced from Davis Dam as part of ongoing collaborative effort to decrease nuisance caddisfly population
Beginning next week, the Bureau of Reclamation plans to reduce overnight releases from Davis Dam on selected dates in an attempt to decrease the local caddisfly population – following a request from the cities of Laughlin, Nevada and Bullhead City, Arizona. The reduced flows along the river reach below Davis Dam will help with an ongoing pest abatement study being conducted by the downstream communities to combat this nuisance species that negatively impacts businesses and visitors to the area.
